Specific embodiment
It is further explained below in conjunction with Fig. 1 to the 2 couple of present invention, but does not limit to the present invention.
A kind of biomimetic manipulator, including motion capture equipment 1, PC control end 2, microcontroller 3 and actuator 4, moves Make seizure equipment 1 to be wirelessly connected with PC control end 2, realize data transfer and communication, PC control end 2 is wireless with microcontroller 3 Connection, microcontroller 3 is connected with actuator 4;The actuator 4 include external environment condition detection module 41, mechanical arm 42, Climbing mechanism 43, mechanical arm fixing device 44;The mechanical arm 42 includes mechanical gripping 424, forearm 423 and large arm 422, forearm 423 one end are connected by joint 421 with mechanical gripping 424, and 423 other end of forearm is connected by joint 421 with 422 one end of large arm, 422 other end of large arm is connected with mechanical arm fixing device 44 by joint 421.The motion capture equipment 1 is Kinect.Described External environment condition detection module 41 includes minisize pick-up head and infrared sensor.The mechanical arm fixing device 44 includes base and suction Disk.
In the course of the work, where biomimetic manipulator moves to operation to be carried out by its climbing mechanism 43, external rings Border detection module 41 monitors external environment condition, and testing result is fed back to microcontroller 3, and microcomputer is passed data to PC control end 2, operator carry out corresponding arm action according to testing result, and now motion capture equipment 1 records human body and moves Make and record result is transferred to PC control end 2, PC control end 2 corresponding computing is carried out, joint angular data is drawn, by wifi Or wire transmission, to robot, robot is moved using these joint angles such that it is able to execute similar to the mankind Action, realizes robot apish action in real time;Additionally, microcontroller 3 can export joint angle automatically according to historical data Data, so as to realize automatically controlling to mechanical arm 42.
Based on above-mentioned operation principle, the present invention proposes a kind of control method of biomimetic manipulator, including:
Each 421 position of joint of human action is obtained, goes out people's body phase using 421 position calculation of each joint of the human action Direction vector between adjacent joint 421;
Direction vector between corresponding with robot for direction vector between the human body adjacent segment 421 adjacent segment 421 is entered Row coupling, obtains the target angle that robot need to be moved to.
For the present embodiment, using Kinect as motion capture equipment 1.But this is not limited solely to Kinect, we also used wearable device to carry out capturing motion.But for explanation purposes, we are only discussed in detail use The system of Kinect.The depth information of human body can be converted in the routine interface of the Kinect of Microsoft's production the bone of human body Frame, so as to know the three-dimensional location coordinates information in each joint 421.
For the technical program, it is related to two coordinate systems.Respectively robot coordinate system and world coordinate system.
As Kinect only obtains the direction vector between each 421 coordinate data of joint of human body and limbs, rather than limbs All parameters.For example, if rotating along robot coordinate axle, coordinate data is not interfered with, but is affected coupled The parameter of other limbs.Based on this, this case proposes the optimization for whole limb control angle.
By the data normalization obtained by Kinect, the direction vector of 421 points of two adjacent segment will be connected divided by two The distance that 421 points of joint, can thus obtain unit vector of each human synovial 421 with respect to a upper joint 421.
Due to most anthropomorphic robot, such as NAO, there is diverse size with human body, to robot adjacent segment 421 Between direction vector be normalized;Using the direction vector between normalized human body adjacent segment 421 and normalized machine Direction vector between people's adjacent segment 421 obtains the error function with respect to robot coordinate system;By optimizing error function Method obtains the joint angle that robot need to be moved to.Wherein, the error function is:
Wherein,BHiIt is expressed as the direction vector between human body adjacent segment 421 in robot coordinate system;BVi(θ) it is expressed as in machine Direction vector in device people's coordinate system between robot adjacent segment 421,BVi(θ) it is function expression with regard to the 421 jiaos of θ in joint;n Represent limbs number, i represents certain limbs,BS represents error amount, ωiRepresent the weights of i-th limbs.
The error function of above formula is optimized using inverse kinematics method, error optimization problem under prescribed conditions turns It is turned into i.e. as following equations:
Wherein, make under the restrictive condition of given joint angle θBS minimum.
For above-mentioned optimization problem, this is solved using Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm (hereinafter referred to as LM algorithm) Problem.LM algorithm is the combination of gradient descent algorithm and Gauss-Newton algorithm, and the process of its iteration can have following equations to represent:
Wherein, k represents frame number, θkRepresent all joint angle vectors of the robot tried to achieve of kth frame, j represents the iteration of LM algorithm Number of times;BSkError between the corresponding human body that obtains for kth frame robot each limbs vector and Kinect is vectorial, the dimension of θ is Counted by the joint 421 of specific limbs and to determine;J represents Jacobian matrix of the error function with regard to θ;λ is accommodation coefficient to change The speed of convergence and the stability of algorithm, when λ is compared with hour, convergence rate is higher.If meeting following condition:
||θk+1,j+1k+1,j| | < ε1orBSk< ε2
That is+1 frame of kth, the mould of the acquired joint of robot angle vector difference of iteration twice before and after LM algorithm, less than specific threshold ε1Or each limbs vector of kth frame robot is less than specific threshold ε with the deviation of the human body vector of Kinect acquisition2, iterative process will Can terminate, while in order to avoid diverging, we can arrange a maximum iteration time value to force to stop.
Summary embodiment, the method for the invention is applied to NAO robot, can summarize the concrete optimization of joint angle Flow process:Kinect catch human action each joint angle, calculate the direction vector between adjacent segment 421, by this direction to Amount each joint 421 direction vectors corresponding with NAO robot itself are mated (even if the error function minimum in the 7th article) and are obtained To the target angle that NAO robot should be moved to.Subsequently, pilot angle is sent by the device communication module of NAO robot, makes machine The each joint 421 of people is moved to target angle have been realized robot and has followed human action.
After obtaining, by said method, the target angle that mechanical arm 42 need to be moved to, it would be desirable to 42 joint of mechanical arm 421 motors propose control method:It is controlled by the equipment communication management module of itself software development environment of NAO robot.
Equipment communication management module is a part for NAO robot software's development environment, and which is responsible for most of robot electricity The communication of sub- equipment room.Equipment communication management module has independent real-time thread, executes once per 10s.In order to connect brake, Action module regularly would generally send renewal request to equipment communication management module.Then equipment communication management module is calculated and should be asked A linear approximation asking simultaneously sends it to appropriate device.By in each real-time thread ring arrange angle on target come Using equipment communication management module.Joint 421 is driven to target angle to obtain the pilot angle of next real-time thread ring, I Set up the track of each degree of freedom.
Above in conjunction with accompanying drawing, the embodiment of patent of the present invention is elaborated, but patent of the present invention is not limited to Above-mentioned embodiment, in the ken that those of ordinary skill in the art possess, can also be without departing from patent of the present invention Ancestor.
